How about mounting the engine with some sort of spring loaded engine
mounts and measure the deflection under load. Perhaps even a strain
guage on the standard engine mounts would work?

The Nissan Skyline GTR in Japan has a torque guage on the dash.. I'll
try to find out how it works. (Probably done somewhere in the highly
complex transmission)
